There are lots of new Pokémon games leaking right now, but we are steering clear

Yeah... we aren't touching that

Hey trainers! I want to preface this article by stating that we won’t be linking to any of the information we discuss. Primarily, it appears that the information is coming from stolen data. Mostly, we wanted to make this article serve as a PSA warning for any readers who were curious about what was going on, so if you came here looking for juicy details, we’d advise you to look elsewhere.

However, if you thought ZA would be the only Pokémon game leaking this week, I don’t think anyone could have been prepared for a second teraleak, which has apparently revealed three new games under development by The Pokémon Company out of nowhere. And while we can’t factually say this information is real, the evidence is pretty damning, trainers.

Now, I’m sure you are asking why we’re not revealing what is being discussed in more detail and instead giving you a PSA warning? Well, it is pretty obvious. Most of this information is coming from theft, and while other sites might be jumping on this now-public information, we at Destructoid want to take a step back to issue a warning for trainers who want to avoid it, rather than writing out everything that is being showcased. After all, if you want to see it, it won’t be hard to find.

Of course, there is also the chance that the stuff being revealed no longer exists and are previous plans that Game Freak has scrapped. However, to give an idea of what is being shown, in addition to new game announcements, several beta assets for previous games, canceled or unused Pokémon, and forms are also being released right now, among other details.

We apologize if you came here expecting us to delve into all the available information. We won’t be doing that. However, if, like us, you’d prefer to hold back and wait for official announcements, consider staying off social media for a while.
